Summary<\/p>\n
This project aims to develop a modern city free of carbon emissions, accelerate the transition to a circular economy, and promote the development of the bioeconomy in the region.<\/p>\n
We will work to jointly build a roadmap, with objectives, commitments and metrics, to live in a healthy, clean, resilient and prosperous city.<\/p>\n
